Thanks to clear communication and a well-organized installation process, the field was finished ahead of schedule, giving students and staff an early look at their new athletic space.</p>                            <p>Shaw Sports Turf's Game ON system is an industry-leading innovation in synthetic turf designed to deliver unmatched customization, performance, and durability.

With 23 standard colors and custom options, schools can fully personalize their field to reflect their brand, mascot, and spirit.</p>               <p>&#34;What aspect drew us to Game ON was essentially all the creativity that we can do with the field and the design,&#34; said <span>Jamie Stottlemyer</span>, Assistant Superintendent of Facilities and Operations.</p><p>The Shaw Sports Turf Game ON system allowed the school to incorporate student input into the field's final look, creating a sense of ownership and pride among the community.</p><p>&#34;Shaw Sports Turf actually designed us multiple different field configurations, and then we sent it out to the middle school children to vote on their favorite design. Other manufacturers just offer standard systems, but Game ON offers significantly more flexibility, which allowed us to be much more creative throughout the design process.&#34;</p><p>&#34;We put our minds together — big logos, smaller logos, patterns — and we did some crocodile skin throughout the entire field. Then we blew the crocodile up in centerfield,&#34; said <span>Jennifer Holton</span>, the regional territory manager for Shaw Sports Turf. &#34;Their color scheme played into this so well that it was just easy to make him ginormous.&#34;</p><p>&#34;The installation process was amazing. We had a design schedule that actually had us completing the field in the middle of August and here we are in the middle of July and the fields already done. They far exceeded our expectations. The field went in perfectly. It's beautiful, and it was on time,&#34; said Stottlemyer.</p><p>Turf Product: Game ON Legion</p><p>The completion of the Shaw Sports Turf's Game ON turf field at West Bloomfield Middle School represents more than just a facilities upgrade, it's a testament to innovation, collaboration, and community engagement.
